A tonneau cover can include a frame, a bed cover portion located within the frame, and a gasket to form a watertight seal between the frame and a vehicle. In some embodiments, the gasket includes an attachment portion configured to connect with the frame and a compression portion attached to the attachment portion and configured to deform between the tonneau cover and the vehicle to resist water entry between the gasket and the vehicle. In some embodiments, the attachment portion is less compressible than the compression portion. In some embodiments, the attachment portion comprises a pair of arms extending outward from a stop component and the compression portion comprises a pair of bulb seals, each of the bulb seals being located below each of the arms.

A slider window assembly for a vehicle includes at least one fixed window panel and a movable window panel that is movable along an upper rail and a lower rail at the at least one fixed window panel between a closed position and an opened position. The upper rail includes a channel, and a filler is disposed in the channel of the upper rail. The filler includes a filler body having opposite side walls, and the filler includes lips established along respective ones of the side walls. The lips are extruded onto and along the filler body. The lips include a compressible and flexible material and provide a dampening and cushioning function at the movable window panel when the movable window panel is disposed in the channel of the upper rail.
